It’s at the point where Collins needs dropping for his own good. Forget the comedy dive over the ball for their first. It was the nothingness of a foray off the line and a feeble disguise of a punch for the third that screamed “confidence through the floor”.

That’s the issue. Ours has gone from a squad of adding 2-3 and finessing to needing 5 new starting players. 4 if you take a chance on Dovin. That means Doug has to fund the purchase of two CH’s, a midfielder and a right back. And by fund it will be from reserves, not sales, unless Gyokeres goes.

The game is all about momentum. Sometimes we have it. But we concede so many goals, so many of them stupid ones, that it means you’re dragging yourself along all the time. The Collins howler on Saturday completely switched the momentum. Roll into that Kings business based transfer strategy and...

Don’t see the problem re Kitching. We are desperate for a bit of aggression at the back.

I wonder when the tactics sheep will finally acknowledge that playing out from the back is a ridiculous tactic? Spurs particularly but everyone else concede endless goals via this tactic.

If I was Frank I’d be going with Dovin Mve Thomas Kitching Bidwell Eccles Sheaf Saka Rudoni Emc Simms

So, reading between the lines we have an owner who bought a team because he thought he’d get a stadium and a stadium owner who bought a stadium because he wanted a team? I must admit I think King has dodged a bullet. Tenancy is actually a decent business model.

No, but we need at least two who are good enough. At the moment we potentially have 1

Agreed. Dovin, Kitching and Bidwell in for Plymouth. Torp out - still not seen him do anything near enough. Eccles in. Top 3 ok

Don’t think it’s quite that bad. Dovin - how do we know. Needs to play. Bidwell - perfectly good champ lb. Van Ewijk - just needs to not play occasionally. Sheaf. Anyone who thinks a group of players to build around shouldn’t include him is deluded. And up front we have good options.

Whatever he’s seen so far it’s not feasible that he can play again after yesterday

A DoF might help. But to have any chance they need to bring a keeper and 3 defenders with them.

I think we’ve got to be fair with BTA. He’s largely being used for 15 minutes at the end of games on the left wing. It’s not a scenario easy to impress in.

Does anyone actually know what the problem is with Kitching. To not be able to get a game ahead of Binks he must have done something unfathomably bad.

Of course he won’t put his own money in. He’s not invested emotionally. He has not even a tenuous connection to the club. It’s purely business.

He’s probably not so alarmed when we win???

He was too alarmed with the result and wanted to get in to address the team. Rather than engaging in meaningless gestures.

What is fairly apparent is that King is clueless football wise. Many owners are. The problem we have is that he’s handling the day to day as he is “The Board”. It won’t end well.

Have a look at Ritchie for them today. Absolutely bossed us just by working hard. He’s a veteran. As Sheaf span around situations, Torp did his normal treacle running and Eccles looked bemused he just wanted the ball. It’s not a complex game.

What happened? Our keeper engineered a complete momentum change
